Fogs too blue?

[JohnMoe]

Installed these vanquish fog lights. 2016 Tahoe LTZ. I'm hoping the blue will grow on me. I really wanted a closer match to factory headlights. Also, the aftermarket bulbs are not a perfect fit and might chew up the plastic retaining clip on the back of the housing. I had a tough time with it, but eventually got it, I think...

I have never been a fan of 'blue' lights, either. I'm sure that @Vanquish Auto will speak up here. What color were they marketed as? 6000,6500?

BTW... Nice avatar. Just beat Milwaukee in extras. Magic # = 6.

For some reason the fitment on the Tahoe is little harder. I've been suggesting adding oil to help as I tried using the o rings from the factory bulb and made it loose. The color is 6000k, is more visible in the first picture. Problem is the factory headlights are closer looking to a 5k even thought it's 4300k. The parking led strip is 5k too. Shouldn't notice the color difference from driver's perspective. I'm going to look into providing an option in the 5k color for the factory hid headlights. Will definitely exchange them for you at that point so it gives you a better match. It's also becoming a popular question so I really should do something about it.

Hello, John!

Problem solved, and I think we killed two birds with one shot. 5000k will be available next week for all factory hid headlight owners and fixed the fitment problem. I will let you know when the 5k kit goes in your way.

@Vanquish Auto I’ve been trying to get ahold of you for awhile. I’m still waiting on getting the correct bulbs for my back up lights. The ones you sent awhile ago do not fit my Suburban.

Hey Frank, not sure if we lost communication because of the storm. I haven't get any recent emails from you. I did try to ask you about the fitment. I will get you standalone bulbs as soon as possible. Give me about a week from now.

That would be great, I only hope I didn't damage the plastic retaining clip.

Thanks yes I’ve been trying to reach you via email and PM on here but then I figured the storms were the reason because you responded quickly on all other issues or questions I’ve had. Thanks can’t wait to get them.

Did I misunderstand, are you sending these out as replacement for the ones I purchased?

Hey John...did these lights plug into the factory wiring harness?
